Of Footwear for the Coming Season.
READ WHAT ADAMS HAS TO SAY in regard to same: In ladies
wear the style of toes have not changed materially from the past sea
son, although black goods will be worn somewhat, with the kid and vest
ing tops, yet the beautiful dark shades of tan vici witli combination tops
will be the great leaders for the fashionable folk.
In regard to men's wear, of course the tan
colors will have the predominence over all oth
ers, although for the full dress the patent leath
ers and the black vici stocks will be worn.' Wider
toes will be shown considerable the coming
season, but the happy medium will be most
sought after. We shall be ready the coming
week to show the above styles both in ladies'
and gents' wear, and would be pleased to have
you call and inspect them.
